Chapter 1. System Kernel
1. System Kernel
This chapter is used to introduce the system kernel of MR350MKII. Where the
system kernel is divided into six subsystems to service application programming
interface, keyboard input, LCD display, communication I/O, Real Time Clock, Relay
output/Digital input and Barcode wand/Magnetic stripe/Proximity reader.
1.1. Application Programming Interface
The MR350MKII kernel includes three basic modules: device driver, file
manager and DOS manager. The programmer can design the application
programs by calling those available functions just like that in the PC DOS
environment.
The ROM based operating system of the terminal provides emulated
MS/DOS function calls. The calling and parameter passing conventions are
identical to that of MS/DOS. The detailed description of supported
functions of the Terminal's subsystems, I/O interface, DOS manager and File
manager is defined in later chapters.
The software to be run on MR350MKII may be programmed by using
Microsoft C 5.1 and later version, and the IBM PC macro assembler version
1.0 and later version. Transaction data can be processed interactively with
the computer or stored in a file.
NOTE in using Microsoft C:
When program execution area assigned less than 64K (see section 4.3) and
a program with size more than 64K is invoked to run. A run time error
message, "Not enough space for environment", will be shown. In this case
add following statement in main:
/* mypgm.c */
_setenvp()
{
}
main()
{...
...
...
}
and link with: >LINK /NOE mypgm

1.2. Keypad Subsystem
The keypad subsystem scans the key matrix, converts the scan code to its
associated key value, and stores the value in the input buffer of keyboard for
program utilization. Note that the [SHIFT] key is not stored into the buffer,
it is used to distinguish the alphabetic and numeric mode of associated key
position and provide an alternative key code. The following table shows the
key values of each key.

1.4. Communication Subsystem
The MR350MKII terminal communication subsystem consists of
1) point-to-point connection mode and
2) multi-point connection mode for network processing.
1.4.1. Point to point mode
Either RS-232 or RS-485 port can be used in point-to-point mode
when it is set as serial port. Each port can be configured, input data
and output data by DOS call. Nevertheless to transfer files, a Kermit
server can be invoked by selecting option “3) COM” in user
command menu or typing ”COM” in the Ready mode and a Kermit
utility should also run on the Host side in order to make the data
communication.
1.4.2. Multi-point mode
Either RS-232 or RS-485 port can be also used in multi-point mode
by Multi-protocol (define by Unitech) when it is set as Host port.
While RS-485 port is assigned to serve multi-point mode, up to 32
terminals can be accessed through one channel, On the other hand,
while RS-232 is selected, the number of accessible terminals is
limited by the number of available RS-232 ports on the host
computer. There is also a multi-point communication protocol built
in the MR350MKII for data communication of a multi-point
networking.
1.5. Real time clock subsystem
This subsystem allows the program to set and read system date and time of
the MR350MKII.
1.6. Relay output and Digital input subsystem
The MR350MKII supports two contact relay ports and four photocoupler
input ports for digital signal input/output control, where pin #11/12 and pin
#13/14 can also be assigned to RS-232 port and barcode scanner by setting
of jumpers J1 to J6 (refer to MR350MKII Technical Reference Manual).

1.7. Bar code / Magnetic stripe / Proximity / ICC
The MR350MKII has two ports for connecting different reader Internal
reader and External reader.
External reader port is dedicated for bar code reading by a bar code wand,
CCD, or laser diode scanners, and the terminal supports reading of Code 39,
Code 128, Codabar, Interleaved 2 of 5, UPC and EAN.
NOTE:
The CCD and laser diode scanner are only supported while connected
through internal reader port. If the terminal block port #3 is set as
scanner port, it can support barcode wand, slot reader , magnetic stripe
reader and proximity reader.
The Internal reader, as badge reader port, is mainly designed for
connecting a barcode slot reader, magnetic stripe reader, proximity
reader(wiegand interface) or smart card (ICC) reader. The terminal supports
the reading of single track 1, 2 or 3 magnetic card stripe.
1.8. Download Program in Point-to-point mode
Connect the Terminal in point-to-point mode through serial port interface,
then follow the steps listed below to download a program to the Terminal:
Step 1. Connect a MR350MKII to a PC via RS232 interface with a proper

prompt. This program allows you to scan barcode data and send data
from the MR350MKII to the PC.
1.9. Download Program in Multi-point mode
A sample program, 485COM.EXE, in the UTILITY disk is for multi-point
mode environment testing. Please note in multi-point mode each terminal
should be assigned a unique address ID and consistent communication
parameters with the PC.
NOTE: Following instructions use Host port to serve multi-point mode.
1) If Host port is RS232, directly connect to RS232 port between PC and
MR350MKII
2) If Host port is RS485. Install an RS-485 interface card or an RS232/422
converter to the PC. And cabling the network trunk from RS485
interface to MR350MKII via RS485 port (note a twist-pair cable with 22
or 24 AWG should be used).
3) Set communication parameters including address ID on each
MR350MKII properly. (The default values are, 9600 bps, non-parity, 8
data bits, 1 stop bit, address ID ‘A’)
4) Power up the PC and all terminals.
5) Run the test program, 485COM.EXE, on the PC.
CRT screen shall appear the following message:
Terminal type 1>350/360 2>700/870/860:

2.1. Device Control Table
The device control table contains MR350MKII peripheral configuration information
including the barcode scanner port, the badge reader port, LCD display, keyboard
and buzzer output. The barcode scanner is controlled by a separate data structure
and barcode control table, to be discussed later.

2.4. Communication Control Table of Host port
The communication control table is applicable to configure the host port of
the MR350MKII.
The communication control table specifies all communication parameters
between the host system and the MR350MKII. When a hard reset command
is issued via keypad input or host command sequence the default
communication parameters are restored. The host system may then configure
most MR350MKII parameters by issuing host command sequences. The
host command sequences will be introduced in this manual.
2.4.1. Type Definition
typedef struct {
BYTE baud_rate;
BYTE stop_bit;
BYTE data_bit;
BYTE parity;
BYTE protocol;
BYTE address;
WORD timeout;
} COM_CONFIG;
The MR350MKII terminal communicates with the host via the host
port. The communication baud rate may be programmed from 110
to 38.4K baud (bits per second).

protocol:
address:
'M'
'F'
'A'
= Multipoint (default)
= None protocol
= terminal address ID for Multipoint mode
(default)
Each MR350MKII has to be assigned a unique
communication address when it is used in a
Multipoint environment. The address is used by a
host or concentrator to perform polling functions.
Characters 'A'-'Y' and '0'-'6' are used for assigning an
address ID of each terminal.
timeout:
'02'
= polling timeout two cycle periods
(default).
'02'-'FF' in hex format.
The value of this setting is specified for the
communication timeout. If the MR350MKII does not
receive a response from the host system within the
number of timeout cycle periods, the MR350MKII
regards the communication as unsuccessful and the
transmission is then aborted. If the timeout value is
set to zero, no timeout check is performed by the
MR350MKII.
2.5.
Terminal Control Table (available for host port only)
The terminal control table is meaningful only if the MR350MKII operation switch is
set to "terminal mode". All other operational modes ignore the terminal control
table.
2.5.1. Type Definition
The terminal control table is defined by the following typedef
TERM_CONFIG. There is only one instance of the
TERM_CONFIG data structure:
typedef struct { char terminal_id[8]; /* terminal id */
BYTE
BYTE
BYTE
BYTE
BYTE
BYTE
online;
echo;
autolf; /* auto LF */
mode;
linepage; /* line or page block */
lineterm; /* line terminator */
2-17
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
BYTE
pageterm;/* page terminator */
} TERM_CONFIG;
Each MR350MKII "terminal" is identified by an ASCII string. There
can be up to seven characters of a terminal identification. The
identification entry in the TERM_CONFIG table has one more
character space to allow ASCII_Z (hex 0) termination, as in C
language convention.
online:
'R'
= set to Remote and transmit data to
the host port (default)
'L'
= set to Local and not transmit
echo:
'N'
= Collected data displayed
'F'
= Collected data not displayed
Above two variables, TERM_online and
TERM_echo, are used to control
transmission and display of the collected data,
respectively. If TERM_online is set to
Remote the MR350MKII will transmit data
to the host, otherwise it will not transmit. If
TERM_echo is set to Echo collected data will
be displayed on the MR350MKII LCD,
otherwise data will not be displayed.
autolf:
mode:
'N'
= set not to append a LF after a CR
= set to append a LF (default)
'F'
This variable instructs the MR350MKII to
append a LF character whenever a CR is
collected from an input scanning device.
'C'
= set to Character mode
'B'
= set to Block mode (default)
This parameter specifies either character
mode or block mode free-format operation.
The aforementioned form caching operation
is only applicable when the MR350MKII is
set in block mode.
linepage:
'L'
'P'
'B'
= set line block mode (default)
= set page block mode
= set both line and page block modes
The linepage parameter is useful only ifmode
has been specified as 'B'.

3.2. Communication Environment Setup
Before placing MR350MKII into the communication environment, you have
to decide:
1) Whether the RS-422/485 port or RS-232 port assigned as host port and
another one as serial port.
2) Set communication protocol for host port. Please note, the protocol for
serial port is always none.
3) If you have installed a internal modem interface. You have to set COM1 as
modem instead of RS485.
The factory defaults for the communication environment are:
Host port: as RS-422/485, multi-point protocol.
Serial port: RS-232, none protocol.
Once you have assigned the protocol to the host port, the MR350MKII’s
system kernel will automatically packing or unpacking the sending or
receiving data according to the selected protocol. On the other hand, since
the serial port has no protocol, you must use INT 34H (RS232) or INT 33H
(RS-422/485) to read or write data character by character.
??NOTE:
If you want to control the host port I/O service, you must designate
“NONE” protocol for the host port and then using INT 34H or INT 33H to
control I/O for RS232 or RS422/485. The proper function call depends on
which port is assigned as host port(see the next two sections).

3.4. Serial I/O for RS-232 and RS-485
The system allow to the RS-232 and RS-485 to serve serial input/output
(character mode I/O) no matter the port is assigned as host or serial port.
However, if the port is assigned as host, must select “NONE” as its active
protocol.
The INT 34H is dedicated for RS-232 and INT33H is dedicated for RS-485
and the both function calls are functional for host and serial port.

Open RS-485 multi-bus to send out data
The RS-485 is a multi-bus architecture that means more than one RS-485
I/O port can access the trunk line. Thus, if the RS-485 intends to do serial
data input/output, it must occupy the bus first to prevent from other linked
terminals to send or receive data. The bus will be released while the data
transmission is done and then release the bus to be used by other terminals
for data transmission.
Entry Parameters:
Returned Values:
AH = 5
None
void TC_485_open()
{
regs.h.ah = 5;
int86(0x33,®s,®s);

Entry Parameters:
Returned Values:

None
void TC_485_close()
{
regs.h.ah = 6;
int86(0x33,®s,®s);
}
NOTE:
1) While the RS-485 post is used for serial input/output (character I/O)
communication. The application must enable RS-485 first to set
communication characteristic and make the system ready for serial I/O and
then open its RS-485 to occupy the bus prior to reading or writing data. The
application should close the RS-485 port when the data pack transmission
completed and release the bus to be used by other terminals. And the
application should disable the RS-485 port while all data packs are send or
received.
Ex.
Enable RS-485 port for character based communication
?
Open RS-485 to occupy the bus
?
Repeat { read/write data to RS-485 port } until completed
?
Close RS-485 to release the bus
?
Disable RS-485 port for character based communication
2) When the RS-422/485 is controlled by use of INT 33H and the port is
assigned as host. The protocol must set as “NONE”.
3) If the RS-422/485 port acts as serial port, and the flow of hand shaking will
be controlled by user program instead of XON/XOFF. You must set the flow
control as “NONE”.

3.6. Internal/ External reader Port: INT 21H
There are two readers can be connected to MR350 MKII --- Internal
Reader and External Reader. Internal reader is a build-in reader, it is
installed inside of MR350 MKII. External reader can be connected to either
scanner port or terminal block. For internal reader, if it cannected with
Magnetic stripe reader or Bar code slot reader, the system can automatically
set up the Internal reader type by detecting the first time swiped card type. If
the user use the default type, the Bar code slot reader. When he attempts to
swipe the magnetic card through the slot reader, the terminal will detect it
and change the slot reader type into Magnetic stripe reader automatically.
However, this automatically discriminating reader type feature will not keep
the first attempt data. The user must re-swipe again.

The following MS/DOS function calls are emulated by MR350MKII. The calling
convention is identical to that of MS/DOS, i.e. INT 21H with function code in
registered AH. The parameter passing mechanism is also identical to the MS/DOS
convention. Unsupported DOS calls are returned with a completion status code
immediately. Please refer to MS/DOS Technical Reference Manual for further
details.

3.9. File Manager
When the file is downloaded or uploaded, the working file can not be opened
by the application command. As the same result, when the file is opened by
application, the host computer can not download or upload with the same
file. This limitation is used to protect the file pointer from re-writing and
corrupt the file system.
3C
Create or truncate file
When a file is created, the file manager searches the file table for a file name
matched. If it is found, the corresponding file handle is returned, and the file
pointer is reset to the beginning of the file. The actual file size is reset to
zero. If the file does not exist in the file table, a file entry is allocated, and
memory is assigned.
Entry Parameters:
Returned Values:
AH = 3C
DS:DX = segment:offset of ASCIIZ file name
if successful : Carry = clear, AX = handle
if fail : Carry = set, AX = 3

Chapter 4. Host ESC Commands
4. Host ESC Commands
There are three classes of host communication activities:
(1)
Host Sends Control/Configuration Commands to the MR350MKII
Almost all MR350MKII configurations and operations may be controlled by
the host system via control commands. Configuration commands are used to
set up system tables such as the communication control table. Control
commands are used to abort MR350MKII operations, reset the
MR350MKII, instruct the MR350MKII to execute an application program,
or other functions related to operations.
Configuration commands are normally issued by the host system during the
initialization process. Control commands, however, may be issued at any
time during normal operation or during a recovery action.
(2)
(3)
Host Requests Data from the MR350MKII
Two kinds of data are usually requested by the host system: MR350MKII
system data and application data. Application data is the information which is
generated from application program, system data is the information which is
pertinent only to MR350MKII executives, e.g. file names, system
parameters, etc. The MR350MKII transmits data depending on the protocol
used.
File Transfers Between the Host and the MR350MKII
Executable program file and data files are downloaded to the MR350MKII
from the host or uploaded to the host from the MR350MKII. File transfers
may use a special file transfer protocol to move data in a point-to-point or
multi-point connection.
In the following sections we will first discuss the host communication commands and
briefly describe their functions. Then we will examine detailed protocol of each
function.
4.1. General Control Commands
1.
Hard Reset ( ESC H )
A hard reset command clears all the MR350MKII RAM memory content. It
performs tests on all major hardware devices. Programs or data that have
previously accumulated in the MR350MKII or previously been downloaded
by the host will be purged from the memory. Default system parameters are
4-58
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
restored from the Flash ROM.The hard reset command will not purge the
program files that stored on Flash ROM
The hard reset command does not have any parameter or value. The
equivalent keypad invoking sequence is entering the supervisor mode and
selecting an initialization command.
2.
3.
Abort ( ESC A )
Abort is the "soft reset" command. The MR350MKII terminates its
execution and returns to ready mode. Programs and data that have been
stored in the MR350MKII RAM space are preserved. The system
parameters remain unchanged. The abort command does not have any
parameter or value. The equivalent keypad invoking sequence is pressing the
[SHIFT] and [F5/*] keys at the same time.
Execute ( ESC X filename )
The host system may instruct the MR350MKII to execute a program which
is resided in the RAM or Flash ROM of MR350MKII. The host issues this
command with the executable program name as its parameter. The
MR350MKII acknowledges with an ACK response if the program exists and
starts execution.
The Execute command has one parameter, the file name. The Execute
command can also be invoked via the MR350MKII workstation menu.
Execute Flash ROM program ( ESC X/ROM filename )
The host system may instruct the MR350MKII to execute a program which
is resided in the Flash ROM of MR350MKII.
4.
Directory ( ESC D )
The directory command instructs the MR350MKII to return a list of
available files in the RAM of the MR350MKII. The directory command can
also be invoked via the MR350MKII workstation menu. When invoked from
the keypad the directory is listed on the LCD display.
Directory Flash ROM ( ESC D/ROM )
The directory command instructs the MR350MKII to return a list of
available programs in the Flash ROM of the MR350MKII.
5.
Erase ( ESC E filename )
The erase command deletes a file from the MR350MKII RAM. An ACK
response will be given if the file existed and was deleted, otherwise an NAK
response is generated by the MR350MKII. The erase command has one
parameter, the file name. The erase command can also be invoked via the
MR350MKII workstation menu.

6.
Autoboot ( ESC O program name )
This command defines an autoboot program name in the MR350MKII. The
autoboot program will be executed automatically each time the power is
turned OFF and ON.
7.
8.
Password ( ESC P password )
To create or edit a supervisor password.
Get RAM size (ESC G)
Get the MR350MKII total RAM size, program execution memory, and free
memory which available for RAM disc.
Get Flash ROM size (ESC G/ROM)
Get the MR350MKII total Flash ROM size and free memory which available
for RAM disc.
9.
Get filename of current executing program (ESC I filename)
While the <ESC I> command is received by MR350MKII, the system will
response the current executing program name or no program is running.
10.
11.
12.
Check file existed and files size(ESC J filename)
Check if the file is existed on MR350MKII or not. If file is exist, it will return
its size
Set keyboard locking (ESC K state)
Set the MR350MKII? keyboard locking state. There are three states
allowed to be assigned: UNLOCK, LOCK, or PARTIAL LOCK.
Change terminal address ID (ESC 5 ID)
Assign a new terminal address ID to the terminal. Once the terminal address
ID is changed, it will take effect immediately without having to reset the
terminal.
13.
14.
Disable UPS battery (ESC F)
In general, UPS battery can supply power to MR350MKII when disconnect
power adapter or power failure. User can use this command to disable UPS
battery after power failure.
Loopback test (ESC 9)
The loopback test is used for testing the line communication. The testing
program run on host sends this command with test data to terminal and
terminal echoes back the data to be verified by the program.

15.
16.
Buzzer Volume (ESC N)
This command can remote changing MR350MKII's buzzer sound.
Supervisor password (ESC P)
This command can remote changing MR350MKII's buzzer sound.
17.
18.
Get terminal ID (ESC R)
This commcand can get terminal ID. The default terminal ID is "MR350"
Get terminal ID and version no (ESC v)
This commcand can get terminal ID and version no. The default terminal ID
is "MR350 V4.xx".
4.2. Configuration Commands
Configuration commands from the host always follow the standard host command
sequence: ESC, cmd, table. The cmd field actually specifies the object to be
configured. The table field contains the data organized in a pre-defined format.
1.
Terminal Configuration ( ESC T )
The terminal configuration command has the following format:
ESC T termtable
This command takes the data structure "termtable" from the host and writes
it to the MR350MKII internal terminal control table. The structure within
"termtable" must conform to the TERM_CONFIG typedef (see section 2.5
on page 2-17) specified in the previous section.
The new terminal control table takes effect immediately after the ESC T
command has been successfully received.
2.
Communication Configuration ( ESC C )
The communication configuration command has the following format:
ESC C comtable
This command takes the data structure "comtable" from the host and writes
it to one of the two MR350MKII internal communication control tables. The
structure within "comtable" must conform to the COM_CONFIG typedef
(see section 2.4 on page 2-16) specified in the previous section.
4-61
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
The new communication control table takes effect immediately after the ESC
C command has been successfully received. The MR350MKII will
reinitialize the corresponding communication port with its new parameters.
For example, if ESC C instructs the RS-232 port to change the baud rate
from 9600 to 1200 the MR350MKII will switch to 1200 right after the ESC
C command has been received. The next host communication will use 1200
baud.
3.
4.
5.
Device Configuration ( ESC V )
The device configuration command has the following format:
ESC V devtable
This command takes the data structure "devtable" from the host and writes it
to the MR350MKII internal device control table. The structure of "devtable"
must conform to the DEV_CONFIG typedef (see section 0 on page 2-14)
specified in the previous section.
The new device control table takes effect immediately after the ESC V
command has been successfully received.
Barcode symbology Configuration ( ESC B )
The barcode symbology configuration command has the following format:
ESC V bartable
This command takes the data structure "bartable" from the host and writes it
to the MR350MKII internal barcode symbology control table. The structure
of "bartable" must conform to the BAR_CONFIG typedef (see section 0 on
page 2-13) specified in the previous section.
The new device control table takes effect immediately after the ESC V
command has been successfully received.
Date/Time Configuration ( ESC M )
The date/time configuration command has the following format:
ESC M datetime
This command allows the host system to initialize the MR350MKII real time
clock function. The parameter datetime is an ASCII character string with the
following interpretations: yyyymmddhhmmss.
The first four characters represent the year. The next two characters
represent the month, where January is 01. The fields after the month field
represent the day of the month, hour (24 hour format), minute, and second,
respectively.
4-62

For example, command ESC M 199009262345 will initialize the
MR350MKII clock to September 26, 1990. The time is 11:45 PM. The
MR350MKII reconfigures the real time clock chip as soon as the ESC M
command has been successfully received.
4.3. File Transfer Commands
1.
Download ( ESC L filename )
The download command is used to transfer a binary executable program or
data file from the host system to the MR350MKII. When the MR350MKII
receives the download command it sends an ACK response back to the host
and immediately puts itself into a file receiving state. The file receiving state
is determined by a preassigned host protocol Kermit. The host system may
start transmission of the file as soon as the ACK response has arrived.
The download command has one parameter, the file name. Download can
also be invoked via the MR350MKII workstation menu.
The upload command performs the opposite function of the download
command. It is normally used to transfer a data file from the MR350MKII to
the host system. This is the typical means of retrieving collected data in
workstation mode.
2.
Upload ( ESC U filename )
When the MR350MKII receives an upload command it puts itself in file
transmission state and starts sending the designated data file. The file transfer
protocol is determined by a preassigned host protocol Kermit. The host
system waits for the arrival of the data file after it sends out the upload
command.
The upload command has one parameter, the file name. The upload
command can also be invoked via the MR350MKII workstation menu.
4.4. Multipoint Protocol
In Multipoint operation the MR350MKII uses an asynchronous serial
multi-drop protocol for communication with the host computer. Note that to
make this protocol operable an RS-232 to RS-485 converter is needed
between the host and the MR350MKII. The terminal protocol consists of
commands and responses of the following format:
Symbol
=>
Description
Transmission from host to terminal
Transmission from terminal to host

ADDR Terminal address (A-Y,0-6) + 80H
CMD
CS1
Network command to terminal, 2 bytes, A-F,0-9
Checksum, first byte
CS2
Checksum, second byte
The checksum is calculated by adding each byte of the transmission, ADDR,
and length of data block (excluding STX and ETX). CS1 is high nibble (4
bits) +40H and CS2 is low nibble +40H.
Example: Command to load the file named A.EXE
STX ESC L A . E X E CS1 CS2 ADDR
Data block
= ESC L A . E X E (excluding STX)
Length of data block = 7
CS
= ESC + L + A + . + E + X + E + ADDR + 7
CS1
CS2
= high nibble of CS + 40H
= low nibble of CS + 40H
The ASCII data characters and their values are as follows:
STX 0x02
ETX 0x03
ACK 0x06
NAK 0x15
DC1 0x11
ESC 0x1B
EOT 0x04
The maximum frame size including protocol control characters is 128 bytes.
Transparent transmission of protocol control characters STX and ETX is
achieved by preceding them with a '\' (backslash) character. Transparent
transmission of the '\' character is achieved by sending two '\' characters
consecutively.
Rule of data convention during data transmission:
1)
One-byte data converted to two-byte data

4.4.1. Protocol Operation
The terminal protocol operates as a multi-point stop and wait
protocol. A station sends only one frame and then stops and waits for
a response.
The following scenarios typify link transmissions (Poll):
* Terminal has no data for the host:
=> STX ADDR
<= EOT - if no data is ready for transmission
* Terminal has data for the host:
=> STX ADDR
<= STX <data> CS1 CS2 ETX - if data is ready

=> ACK
NAK
- if data is received correctly, or
- if an error has occurred
* The host sends a command to and receives a response from
the terminal in one poll cycle; it then acknowledges receipt of
the terminal command response:
=>
<=
STX, CMD, parms, ... CS1, CS2, ADDR
ACK - if data is received correctly and no response is
required, or
NAK - if an error occurred or if there is response data
to be sent.
<=
=>
Command response and data:
ACK - if a command response was sent from the
terminal and received correctly by the host, or
NAK - if an error occurred in the command response
4.4.2. Commands
The following commands are supported for download, diagnostic,
and application data transfers. Each command and its parameters
will be framed as shown before being transmitted; responses have the
same format without the ADDR fields.
STX, CMD, parms, ... CS1, CS2, ADDR
ESC 0 - Application data
=>
<=
STX ESC 0 <data> CS1 CS2 ADDR
ACK or NAK
Since the MR350MKII has only one frame to hold the single
incoming application data, and the frame will not become
available until the holding data is retrieved by terminal?
application program. Therefore, it is important to check the
terminal echo back status whether ACK or NAK to sure the
terminal has received the data.

Chapter 5. How to programning ?
5. How to to
programming
There are two major parts for programming – 1. Programming MR350 MKII and 2.
Programming communication program between MR350 MKII and Host computer. The
following topic describe application and utility library that will help users to develop quickly
and efficiently for their applications.
5.1. Programming MR350 MKII
MR350 MKII’s OS is an open architecture and it provides a MS-DOS compatible
platform, user can write a program run on MR350 MKII to fully control its
input/output facilities or have a complicate accumulation, data validation or table
look up features for your application program. So, users can use standard C, C++
or Assembly language development tools to develop their application. In Chapter
3, it describes detail DOS/BIOS call of MR350MKII, user can directly refer to this
chapter to implement application program. If user dosen’t familiar or skillful in
programming language. Unitech also a program generator tool – Job Generator
Pro (JobGen Pro). The MR350 MKII allows the user to write his application
program by the following programming tools.
??JobGen Pro, a DOS base program generator that requiring the minimum
programming skills. Please contact your local distributor or dealer for more
detailed information.
??Microsoft C version 5.x, 6.x, 7.x or 8.x for MSDOS application
??Microsoft Visual C/C++ V1.52 or below for MSDOS application
??Borland C/C++ or Turbo C/C++ for MSDOS application
??Macro Assembler for MSDOS application

5.1.1. Programming by JobGen PRO
The JOB GENerator PROfessional (JobGenPRO) is an MS-DOS based software
for developing applications for MR350MKII. With JobGenPRO, application
developers may create an application program easily by defining the transactions,
attributes of data fields and operation flow without writing program code. An
executable program generated by JobGenPRO can be downloaded and run on the
MR350 MKII then.
A JobGenPRO application consists of three files with same filename and different
file extension:
.CFG Configuration of environment, communication and I/O interfaces of
terminal.
.JB2 Definition of transactions, data fields and operation flow.
.EXE Execution program generated by JobGenPRO after linked a defined
application.
The main features of JobGenPRO are listed below:
?
?
?
?
Interactive user interface with pop-up windows.
Define system configuration of the MR350 MKII.
Define data fields and process flow.
Download a JobgenPRO application to the MR350 MKII with lookup data
files.
?
?
?
Upload the collected data files from MR350 MKII to PC.
Print specification of a JobgenPRO application for documentation.
Application simulation on PC.
5.1.2. Programming by C/C++
The Unique advantage of MR350MKII is to give application programmer the power
of the industry standard personal computer. Programmers develop MR350MKII
applications by using standard C language and off-the-shelf Microsoft C / Borland C
compiler on personal computers. The complied executable code is then download to
MR350MKII through RS-232 / RS-485 link using Multipoint download.
Borland/Microsoft C/C++ compiler supports a superset of standard C programming
language. MR350MKII provides the standard ANSI C functionality. As a result,
some Microsoft extensions or DOS specific functions are not supported. For detail
standard C function that are supported by MR350MKII firmware, please refer to
Appendix A.
Unitech also provide a utility C (485LIB.C) library for user to develop their
application program. The 350LIB.C incorporates a rich set of libraries to interface
5-81
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
with all MR350MKII? input/output devices. All detailed calling convention and
source code are listed behind each BIOS/DOS call in Chapter 3. For easily using
this library, Unitech also provide sample program (350TEST.C) to help user to use
it. So, user can directly modify this sample program. All of those files are stored on
sub-directory "LIB" of DEMO disk.
5.2. Programming communication program
In Chapter 4, there are details description about Multi-Protocol between
MR350MKII and Host computer. Users can follow this protocol to develop
communication program or integrate them into their application program. But it
seem that it is a little difficult for most user to implement communication program
according specification of communication protocol. So, Unitech provide
communication utility library to help user develop their application program without
know detail communication protocol. In our demo disk, it includes DOS version and
Windows version communication program, communication library and its sample
program.
In DOS platform, we provide a C library (485LIB.C and SLIB.OBJ) for user to
develop their DOS base communication program. We also provide a sample
program 485COM.C for fully using 485LIB.C, so users can directly modify this
program or porting it to your application program. All of those files are stored on
sub-directory "DOSCOM" of DEMO disk
In Windows platform, we provide 16bits/32bits communication DLL for user to
develop their Wondows communication program or intergate communication
function into their application program. User can call this DLL from his Visual
C/C++, Visual Basic or Delphi. All of those files are stored on sub-directory “DLL”
of DEMO disk.
